Why were we there?

The lucky lady will also enjoy a one night stay with breakfast and dinner in the InterContinental Dublin, and in sister MHL Collection Hotels the Powerscourt Resort Hotel & Spa in Wicklow and Glenlo Abbey Hotel & Estate in Galway.

The Best Dressed Man on the evening will receive a one night stay at the InterContinental Dublin with breakfast, dinner and a bottle of Perrier Jouet Champagne.

Who was there?

Fashion editor Bairbre Power styled and hosted an intimate salon fashion show, featuring stunning Ladies’ Day inspired looks from an array of Irish and international designers.

Bairbre joins Nicky Logue, General Manager of InterContinental Dublin, to judge the Best Dressed Lady in August and will be looking for a Continentally Classic look with lots of originality and individuality with a continental twist.

Guests enjoyed a selection of summer canapés, prepared by Executive Head Chef Alberto Rossi and his team, sipped Perrier-Jouet Champagne, and enjoyed refreshing Glendalough Rose Gin and Fever Tree Tonics.

Among the stylish ladies there on the evening were Irish designers Fiona Heaney of FeeG, Heidi Higgins, Laura Jayne Halton and Caroline Kilkenny, milliner Carol Kennelly, broadcasters Mary Kennedy and Nuala Carey and models Sophie Anderton and Ros Lipsett.
